Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1At that hour the disciples came to Jesus, saying: Who thinkest thou is the greater in the kingdom of heaven?
1In pacl sac, mwet tumal lutlut elos tuku ac siyuk sin Jesus, “Su fulat oemeet in Tokosrai lun kusrao uh?”
2And Jesus calling unto him a little child, set him in the midst of them,
2Na Jesus el pangonma tulik srisrik se ac sap elan tu ye mutalos,
3And said: Amen I say to you, unless you be converted, and become as little children, you shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
3ac el fahk, “Pwayena nga fahk nu suwos, kowos fin tia ekla in oana tulik srisrik, kowos ac koflana ilyak nu in Tokosrai lun kusrao.
4Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, he is the greater in the kingdom of heaven.
4El su fulat oemeet in Tokosrai lun kusrao uh pa el su akpusiselyal in oana tulik se inge.
5And he that shall receive one such little child in my name, receiveth me.
5Ac kutena mwet su eis sie tulik srisrik ouinge inek, el oayapa eisyu.
6But he that shall scandalize one of these little ones that believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone should be hanged about his neck, and that he should be drowned in the depth of the sea.
6“Kutena mwet su fah aktukulkulye sie selos inge su srik su lulalfongiyu, ac wona nu sin mwet sacn in sripsripi sie eot wen inkwawal ac sisella elan walomla yen loal in meoa uh.
7Woe to the world because of scandals. For it must needs be that scandals come: but nevertheless woe to that man by whom the scandal cometh.
7Fuka kolukiya nu sin faclu ke oasr na ma su aktukulkulye mwet uh! Kain lumah inge ac nuna sikyak pacl nukewa, tusruktu ac fah arulana koluk nu sin mwet se su pwanang tuh ouiya inge in sikyak uh!
8And if thy hand, or thy foot scandalize thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee. It is better for thee to go into life maimed or lame, than having two hands or two feet, to be cast into everlasting fire.
8“Lac poum ku lac niom fin aktukulkulye kom, pakela ac sisla! Ac wo fin wanginla lac poum ku lac niom ac kom utyak nu in moul ma pahtpat, liki monum in fas ac sisiyang kom nu in e kawil.
9And if thy eye scandalize thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee. It is better for thee having one eye to enter into life, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire.
9Ac la atronmotom fin aktukulkulye kom, tipalla ac sisla! Ac wo kom in utyak nu ke moul ma pahtpat wi atronmuta se na, liki atronmotom kewa in oasr ac sisiyang kom nu ke e lun hell.
10See that you despise not one of these little ones: for I say to you, that their angels in heaven always see the face of my Father who is in heaven.
10“Liyaung tuh kowos in tia pilesru kutena selos su srik inge. Nga fahk nu suwos, tuh lipufan lalos elos mutana ye mutun Papa tumuk inkusrao pacl e nukewa.” [
11For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost.
11Tuh Wen nutin Mwet el tuku in tuh molelosla su tuhlac.”]
12What think you? If a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them should go astray: doth he not leave the ninety-nine in the mountains, and go to seek that which is gone astray?
12“Mea kowos nunku mu sie mwet ac oru fin oasr sheep siofok natul, ac soko tuhlac? Ya el ac tia filiya ma eungoul eu in muta mongo pe eol uh, ac som suk ma soko ma tuhlac uh?
13And if it so be that he find it: Amen I say to you, he rejoiceth more for that, than for the ninety-nine that went not astray.
13Ke el konauk, nga fahk nu suwos lah el ac engan yohk ke sheep soko ah, liki ma eungoul eu ma tia tuhlac uh.
14Even so it is not the will of your Father, who is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish.
14In ouiya se na inge, Papa tomowos inkusrao El tia lungse kutena selos su srik inge in tuhlac.
15But if thy brother shall offend against thee, go, and rebuke him between thee and him alone. If he shall hear thee, thou shalt gain thy brother.
15“Sie mwet lulalfongi fin orekma koluk lain kom, fahla nu yorol ac akkalemye ma sufal lal. Tusruktu, oru ma inge inmasrlomtal na. El fin porongekom, na orekma wo lom folokonulma.
16And if he will not hear thee, take with thee one or two more: that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may stand.
16A el fin tia porongekom, kom eis sie ku luo mwet in wi kom, tuh kas in alein nukewa in oasr akpwayeye sin mwet loh luo yak, oana ke Ma Simusla uh fahk.
17And if he will not hear them: tell the church. And if he will not hear the church, let him be to thee as the heathen and publican.
17Ac el fin tia pacna porongalos, na kom fahkak ma nukewa nu sin church. Ac el fin srangesr lohng church, na kom tari oral oana sie mwet pegan, ku sie mwet eisani tax.
18Amen I say to you, whatsoever you shall bind upon earth, shall be bound also in heaven; and whatsoever you shall loose upon earth, shall be loosed also in heaven.
18“Ke ma inge nga fahk nu suwos nukewa: Kutena ma kowos kapriya fin faclu, ac fah kapiri pac inkusrao; ac kutena ma kowos tulala faclu, ac fah taltalla pac inkusrao.
19Again I say to you, that if two of you shall consent upon earth, concerning any thing whatsoever they shall ask, it shall be done to them by my Father who is in heaven.
19“Ac nga fahk pac nu suwos: Pacl nukewa ma luo suwos insese nu ke sie ma su kowos pre kac fin faclu, Papa tumuk inkusrao El ac fah oru nu suwos.
20For where there are two or three gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.
20Tuh yen nukewa ma oasr mwet luo ku tolu tukeni we inek, nga fah welulos pac.”
21Then came Peter unto him and said: Lord, how often shall my brother offend against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?
21Na Peter el tuku nu yurin Jesus ac fahk, “Mwet Luti, sie mwet lulalfongi wiuk fin nuna orekma koluk nu sik, pacl ekasr nga ac nunak munas nu sel kac? Ya pacl itkosr?”
22Jesus saith to him: I say not to thee, till seven times; but till seventy times seven times.
22Ac Jesus el topuk ac fahk, “Mo, tia pacl itkosr, a itngoul pacl itkosr,
23Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened to a king, who would take an account of his servants.
23mweyen Tokosrai lun kusrao uh ouinge: Sie pacl ah tuh oasr sie tokosra su sulela in tuni soemoul lun mwet orekma lal.
24And when he had begun to take the account, one was brought to him, that owed him ten thousand talents.
24El tufahna akoo in oru ma inge na utukyak sie selos su soemoul lal alukela million dollar.
25And as he had not wherewith to pay it, his lord commanded that he should be sold, and his wife and children and all that he had, and payment to be made.
25Mani su oasr yurin mwet kulansap sac tia fal in molela soemoul lal, ke ma inge tokosra el sap in kukakinyukla el oana sie mwet kohs, wi mutan kial, tulik natul ac ma nukewa lal, in akfalye misa lal.
26But that servant falling down, besought him, saying: Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.
26Ke ma inge mwet kulansap sac putati nu ye mutun tokosra sac ac fahk, ‘Nunak munas, mongfisrasr nu sik, ac nga ac fah akfalye nu sum ma nukewa!’
27And the lord of that servant being moved with pity, let him go and forgave him the debt.
27Tokosra sac pakomutal ac nunak munas nu sel ac eela soemoul lal, na el fuhlella el som.
28But when that servant was gone out, he found one of his fellow servants that owed him an hundred pence: and laying hold of him, throttled him, saying: Pay what thou owest.
28“Na ke mwet sac el oatula, el sun sie sin mwet orekma wial su soemoul nu sel ke sie lupa na srisrik. El sruokilya ac iseya kwawal ac fahk, ‘Molema soemoul lom nu sik uh!’
29And his fellow servant falling down, besought him, saying: Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.
29Mwet kulansap sac putati ye mutal ac fahk, ‘Nunak munas, mongfisrasr nu sik, ac nga fah akfalyela soemoul luk nu sum!’
30And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he paid the debt.
30A el tia lungse lohng, ac el eisalang nu in presin tuh elan muta nwe ke na el akfalyela soemoul lal.
31Now his fellow servants seeing what was done, were very much grieved, and they came and told their lord all that was done.
31Ke mwet orekma wial saya elos liye ma inge, elos arulana toasr kac, ac som fahk ma nukewa nu sin tokosra sac.
32Then his lord called him; and said to him: Thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all the debt, because thou besoughtest me:
32Na tokosra sac solama mwet sac ac fahk nu sel, ‘Kom sie mwet kulansap arulana koluk! Nga nunak munas nu sum ke ma nukewa kom soemoul nu sik kac, mweyen na kom kwafe nu sik.
33Shouldst not thou then have had compassion also on thy fellow servant, even as I had compassion on thee?
33Ya tia fal kom in nunak munas pac nu sin mwet kulansap se wiom ah, oana ke nga oru nu sum?’
34And his lord being angry, delivered him to the torturers until he paid all the debt.
34Tokosra el arulana kasrkusrak sel, ac supwalla nu in presin elan muta keok we nwe ke na el akfalyela soemoul lal nukewa.”
35So also shall my heavenly Father do to you, if you forgive not every one his brother from your hearts.
35Ouinge Jesus el fahk nu selos, “Papa tumuk inkusrao El ac oru oapana inge nu suwos, kowos fin tia nunak munas nu sin mwet lulalfongi wiowos ke insiowos na pwaye.”
